Description of the Racquet

The Quicksilver TC raises the standard for a classic racquet by introducing Thermal Core processing and XMG fibres to the original frame. Hard hitters who like to take the ball early, and control players who depend on racquet speed, touch and precision, will both find a lot to like in the new Quicksilver TC.

The Quicksilver has been a very popular racquet in Black Knight's range for many years and the Quicksilver TC elevates the tradition. The slender bridged head design and light 125g weight is head light. Pushed to the maximum with Thermal Core technology, and X Modulus Graphite (XMG) this model has Ashaway PowerNick 18 string which is a thin 18 gauge Zyex string with the best tension holding capabilities available.

More Information

Our favorite Squash wrap grip is the Squash Galaxy Wrap Grip. We've been in the business a long time and always get requests on what our favorite wrap grip is for squash so we went out and made our own! The Squash Galaxy Wrap grip has a smooth and extremely tacky feel and is the appropriate length and size for any squash racquet on the market. It's only $8 to have it installed at the time of purchase.

The Tecnifibre 305 17g string upgrade is recommended because factory string is less playable/durable then the Tecnifibre 305 17g string we suggest.At the time of purchase, the Tecnifibre 305 17g restring upgrade is $21.95. It's normally $36 if you mailed the racquet to us later so you save $14 if you choose the upgrade right away. The tecnifibre will fray before it breaks and that's completely normal so don't worry about it!

If you choose a vibration dampener go with the Silencer (Our favorite), Head Smart Sorb, Head Megasorb, or the BBB (Big Bad Band).

A question we get everyday is "What is Grommet Tape?" It's a piece of tape that goes over the head (bumper) of your racquet. Sometimes you need a restring because of a broken bumper. For an extra buck to add this, it could save you $25-40!!

We recommend an overgrip for players that tend a sweat a lot, want to build up a grip, or wear through wrap grips very often. An overgrip is thinner and wears quicker than re-grips, but can be changed much quicker and easier than a re-grip. We recommend the SquashGalaxy Black Overgrip or SquashGalaxy White Overgrip, but for those looking for the best sweat absorption, durability, and feel... the Overgrip/Re-grip gives the best combination. Note** when an overgrip is installed, you will not be able to see the re-grip if chose to have it installed.

We get follow up calls/emails everyday thanking us for the upgrades as they really help bring out the performance of the racquet.

Technology

Thermal Core Technology

XMG fibers

NCT

Thermal Core Technology (TCT)

A new process that heats the racquet core to higher temperature during the curing phase, so that the racquet structure is cured uniformly inside and out. This TCT modification to the carbon fibres makes the frame extremely responsive - stiff yet playing with the reactive properties of a more flexible frame. The resulting hit is the best of both worlds - the control of a very stiff frame with the power of a more flexible frame.

Ion Frame Geometry

The shaft is flared in 2 dimensions between the bridge and the handle to create a progressive flex, increasing power transfer.
